I'm just setting up a woodshop (retiring soon), anc researching various brands of tools. To start, I'd like to get a 10" cabinet saw, a 16-19" bandsaw and a 12" planer/jointer (combo?) I've looked at Grizzly, Rikon, Steel City, Ridgid, and Minimax. All seem to have good points and a few weaknesses, but all would seem to be acceptable for a "semi-serious" hobbyist. There have been MANY excellent posts on the Creek from which I have benefited. I recently came across the Accura brand but have not seen that brand mentioned. Accura appears to be positioned against Grizzly etc. but at a little lower price for same features. Do any of you have any knowledge or experience with the Accura tools? Also, any free advice on the other brands for a starting-out woodworker will be appreciated.
Thanks much,
John

My quick web search shows a bunch of parts. I did see some power feeders. Can you supply us a link where we can see some of the other equipment? For what I found, it seems to be a company by the name of Accura that is rebadging parts for sell on Amazon. I've never heard of them before. Jim.

They are sold out of the industrial areas supporting the furniture industry in NC for one. See the
